Ws3

ABSTRACT

The WS3 is made of a strong rust resistant metal, or other material that is rust resistant and strong enough to withstand the abuse of a weedeater line striking it. The WS3 is comprised of the above material, that is cut into a number of side pieces. The number of side pieces is to be determined by the particular wooden post in question. These side pieces are designed to connect to each other, at the edge of each side piece there is a fold that is folded in the opposite direction of the adjacent side that it is to be connected with. These opposite folds connect each side together with the next side, eliminated the need for screws or nails to hold WS3 together as one complete solid unit surrounding a wooden post.

BACKGROUND

For years there have been mail box posts in front of houses. Since the invention of the weed-eater in around 1972, the wooden mailbox post has been getting whipped up by the plastic weed-eater line. The grass grows next to the mailbox post and when the weed-eater trims the grass around the post it can't help but strike the post with the weed-eater line. This causes the post to get chewed up, and whipped away. The WS3 is designed to eliminate this problem.

SUMMARY

The WS3 is designed as a strong series of interlocking side pieces the have folds in the opposite direction of each other. Which each fold connects together with the next fold on the next side, so on and so on until WS3 is one complete rectangular unit surrounding a wooden post, protecting it from weed-eater damage.

DETAIL DESCRIPTION OF WS3

WS3 is generally made of galvanized sheet metal, but can be made of any other material that is rust resistant and strong enough to withstand the abuse caused by a weed-eaters line striking it. To make a WS3 you simply cut to shape any number of sides, as long as the sides edges have folds in the opposite direction of each other (see FIGS. 1-10) adjacent sides edge, so as each side piece can be connected to its adjacent side piece (see FIG. 8). When all sides pieces are connected, the WS3 forms one complete rectangular solid unit that can surround and protect a wooden post from weed-eater damage. (see FIGS. 7 & 10) thanks to WS3's unique interlocking fold system, when completed the WS3 needs no screws, nails, or any other means to hold itself firmly in place as one complete unit surrounding and protecting a wooden post from damage. 

1. WS3 claims to have sides with opposite folds, that is, folds in a different direction from the adjacent side. This is designed to connect each side together with the next side so when all sides are connected WS3 becomes a one piece rectangular unit, without the need for screws or nails to hold WS3 firmly together and in place around a wooden post.
 2. WS3 claims that each side can be connected to the next side using the unique interlocking design of the opposite fold system.
 3. WS3 claims to be made from a strong rust resistant metal, but can be made of any other material that is strong enough to withstand abuse from weed-eater lines.
